    present / absent & Spaces | 2013 - 2021

The series present/absent consists of performative actions and sculptures and builds on the Spaces series. In the performances, the focus from depicting the reach of a body shifts to taking up an entire space through movement and drawing. In the sculptures, the surrounding area becomes part of the composition.
